Explanation:
Similar example:
An installment for 3,000 USD is due for payment on March 31, 2011. The
installment has two discounts. The first discount date is February 15, 2011, for
150 USD. The second discount date is February 28, 2011, for 100 USD.
You submit a payment process request with the following data:
• Payment Date = February 8, 2011
• Pay Through Date = March 30, 2011
• Date Basis = Pay date
The Pay Date Basis setting on the supplier site determines whether the
installment is selected for payment and whether a discount is taken.
If the supplier site Pay Date Basis is set to Discount, the installment is selected
for payment because the Pay Through Date of March 30, 2011, is later than at
least one of the discount dates. The first discount for 150 USD is taken because
the Payment Date of February 8, 2011, is before the first discount date of
February 15, 2011. If the Payment Date was after February 15, 2011, but before
February 28, 2011, the second discount of 100 USD would be taken. The Payment
Date determines the discount.
If the supplier site Pay Date Basis is set to Due, the installment is not selected
for payment because the installment due date of March 31, 2011, is later than the
Pay Through Date of March 30, 2011. The Pay Through Date determines the
installment selection.
